Recently on a business trip to Brazil, my plain-vanilla Nokia kept beeping text messages and calls, while a colleagues' iPhone looked all sexy and dandy, but didn't latch on to the radio - not even after a few reboots. Of course I envy him his isolation (while I was still reachable, 24*7)

Before the iFanboys turn iFlamers, let me tell you I love iProducts - for their design and cool concepts. I love my mac because I believe it will outlast most PCs, and not just look cool. However, every product has a primary function, that simply can *never* be compromised.

The Philips GoWhatever playing back stuff while being boring is better than eye-candy that fails to sing.

What's the problem?]]>May 31st 2009 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 9:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/
Granted, it didn't do video, or have a fancy display (it wasn't color), but it was the same size storage and cheaper.

The only downfall was that it was slow to react when you did have it loaded with songs.

But I still use it, because it trumps my Zune in one very nice way. I can hook it up to any PC, and play music off of it through Winamp using a standard miniusb cable. If I want to play music from my Zune on a PC, I need a Zune specific cable, and I have to have Zune loaded.]]>Jun 1st 2009 6:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 10:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/Jun 11th 2009 2:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/]]>May 31st 2009 8:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 8:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 10:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/May 31st 2009 8:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/
I don't see what's so wrong with this though. it'd be a lot nicer to have in my pocket then lets say my zune ;p]]>May 31st 2009 8:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/The only true negative they could find was that the design didn't resonate with them. Fair enough if they don't like the design, but hey that's a very personal opinion.
They can't even say it's ugly, cause it's way to well build and all.

So based on this they make the hole device down.

Sorry, but this discredits the reviewer, not the device.

Anyways, what else can one expect from the Dutch company that likes to keep their products simple, yet effective!]]>Jun 1st 2009 2:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/Jun 1st 2009 8:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/31/philips-gogear-opus-reviewed-solid-audio-but-painfully-boring/http://tiny.cc/myine_tjh115
